Radek,
Sorry for the obvious question but are your lts.conf files reasonably
identical going from 5.1 to 5.9? In other words, you aren't using
anything that slows things down like compression, etc. in the new
version?

btw, thanks for sharing your experiences for those of us about to follow
your footsteps.

thanks,
William Fragakis

Hi,
Owing to help Joshua (many thanks again) I installed new LTSP K12 on
my
server, and I have few observation with it. I will try to do with this
something later, but today my fresh views are as follow.
notebook Compaq nc 8230, 2,4 GHz processor, 2 GB of memory, ATI
graphic
card), ltsp-server 5.9 and LTSP client epel-6-i386. Both my old
clients
cooperated with LTSP 5.1 very good.
1. Notebook Compacq nc8230 starts booting, but after starting loading
image from TFTP service (I can see information on my screen) I can see
black screen only.
- maximum resolution which I cant reach on my monitor (Samsung
SyncMaster T260HD) is 1680x1050, while with LTSP 5.1 I reached
1900x1200;
- is very slow and watching movies is not acceptable.
I can add, that one my thin client with AMD K6 III 400 MHz, 256 MB of
memory, and GeFforce 5xxx graphic card with ltsp-server 5.1 worked
fine,
including movies. I tested LTSP 5.1 with thnin client Pentium 200 MMX,
128
MB of memory, and GeForce 440 and I can say, that this thin client
works
with LTSP 5.1 comparable to thin client Pentium III with LTSP 5.9 -
not
acceptable. Thin client Pentium 200 MMX was fine with LTSP 4.2.
I will check later LTSP 5.9 with another thin client with Pentium 4
and 1
GB of memory.
But I have old thin clients, which I would like to use now too.
Does anywhere LTSP 5.1 repository exist, which I can use to use my old
think client (let's forget about Pentium 200 MMX, but Pentium III as a
thin
client - why not?)?
Best regards,
Radek

William,

I didn't change anything. All config files including lts.conf I got from
my archive, and I use all the same services using the same config files.
My firewall is stopped. I will see soon what will be after new system
installation (I added the second NIC card i HDD dedicated to LTSP.

Best regards,
Radek
